Highlights¶
-
5G RedCap
Comet 5G integrates cutting-edge 5G RedCap technology to provide flexible internet access, freeing your deployments from the constraints of fixed on-site networks.
-
Network Failover
Coupled with integrated cellular connectivity, Wi-Fi 6, and Ethernet failover support, Comet 5G ensures continuous uptime; should one connection fail, it seamlessly and automatically switches to the next available network, allowing uninterrupted remote KVM operation even in challenging conditions.
-
Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6
Comet 5G supports dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (2.4GHz and 5GHz), providing high-speed, low-latency, and stable wireless connectivity for remote operation and data access.
-
Nearby Control via AP Mode
Comet 5G features Wi-Fi Nearby Control, enabling quick local configuration and management without wired connections. Simply switch the Wi-Fi network mode to AP mode, and it will generate a unique Wi-Fi SSID. Users can connect to this SSID to securely access the management interface for device setup or maintenance.
Note: Activating the AP disconnects the device from its upstream Wi-Fi and provides local access only (with no internet connectivity).
-
Browser-Based Remote Access
Comet 5G allows users to access the KVM interface directly through a web browser, eliminating the need for client installation. This browser-based access uses secure HTTPS encryption and avoids self-signed certificate warnings, ensuring safe and effortless connectivity without additional software.
-
Sleek Design & Touchscreen
Comet 5G features a dark gray body with smooth contours, rounded corners, and a textured matte finish that offers both durability and a premium feel. The 3.69-inch TFT touchscreen provides an intuitive interface for quick access to device functions, ensuring a seamless user experience.
-
4K Display & Two-Way Audio
Comet 5G supports video output up to 4K@30FPS with HDMI out passthrough, allowing simultaneous local display and remote access without an external splitter. It also features two-way audio, enabling clear communication for video conferencing or remote technical instruction.
-
Self-Hosted Deployment
Comet 5G enables flexible self-hosted deployment on mainstream operating systems, including Linux and Ubuntu, giving users full control over remote access and data privacy. The self-hosted system requires a cloud server with at least a dual-core CPU and 2GB of memory, ensuring both privacy and reliable operation.
-
Remote Power Control
Comet 5G features a USB interface for connecting external devices such as an ATX board and a Fingerbot, enabling remote power control of the connected equipment.
Note: Optional accessories sold separately.
